ByAllAccounts Data Integration Offerings

The Morningstar ByAllAccounts Data Access Integration Service provides data providers with a solution to establish data connections to a large network of their customers in the United States (e.g., advisors, investors, broker dealers) through a single integration point. ByAllAccounts has integrations with the largest network of technology platforms in the U.S. wealth management industry. Integrating a single connection with ByAllAccounts gives data providers access to a network of over 70 redistributors, over 50 platform integrations, and over 16,000 advisors who have a ByAllAccounts license. A data integration with ByAllAccounts removes hurdles the data provider might experience with onboarding new customers, eliminating the need for the data provider to manage multiple feeds, still ensuring that their data has greatest reach.

Data Integration Options

ByAllAccounts has the ability to ingest a wide variety of data such as balances, holdings/positions, transactions and account data. Our team of data specialist will be part of the project sizing and be able to answer questions about data as you go through the sales process.
